• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Welcome to Archality - AI Inference by Enthusiasts

    Im going to assume a bot hasnt hijacked your account. Maybe this is a tricky question this early in the game, but how would this compare to other machine learning solutions from dedicated ml companies like tenstorrent or cerebras.

    ZOTAC RTX 5090 12V-2×6 connector completely melts with below-recommended 850W PSU

    Typically in a situation like this you dont load balance, you just use larger safety margins. Larger connector, more pins, different materials or mechanical design, etc. Load balancing is extra complexity that is probably not needed.

    Satellites Are Leaking the World’s Secrets: Calls, Texts, Military and Corporate Data

    no, i wouldnt. Anything that actually needs to be encrypted needs to be encrypted end to end. Encrypting some random link in the middle is a waste of energy.

    Wi-Fi 8 demonstrated with first prototype connection

    Hard disagree. Sometime around 802.11ac or ax wifi got really good. These days i dont bother wiring in even to play some counterstrike. 802.11n or g were worthless for any competitive fast paced games. And the throughput is decent for day to day stuff.

    "Hello" from a plane ~200 miles (320 km) away via Meshtastic (LoRa)

    Thats pretty cool. I havent tried meshtastic. I have a friend in town that uses it ( north bay area, near san francisco, ca, usa)

    Why is website password policy so bad

    Yeah I suppose you might be correct. I still prefer to have a reasonably complex password though.

    Why is website password policy so bad

    Like most things, I think it depends. A 12 character password made of lower case, upper case, numbers, and 8 specials has (26+26+10+8)^12 combinations. Log2( combinations) = 73 bits of entropy. A 7 word password chosen randomly from a 2000 word list has 2000^7 combinations. log2(...

    Why is website password policy so bad

    This is just a rant more than anything, but I suppose if there are actual answers that would be good. Why do websites have such terrible password requirements? I put in a fully random 20 character lowercase letter password, keepass estimates it at 80bits of entropy. Seems good? Website...

    New build won’t turn on

    I would assume the RGB parts of the memory are i2c targets (not controllers). If this is correct, they will not put any data on the bus if there is no request initiated from a controller. In that case simply not installing any led control software would be sufficient to remove all RGB traffic...

    I think it was a little confusing because nicklebon already mentioned/addressed the hindenburg in an earlier post.

    Tesla m10 and Asus prime x-399-a

    Strange that the m10 is triggering it, seems related to motherboard. Either way, some of the suggestions i see are to reinstall the asus aura software, have you tried that? https://rog-forum.asus.com/t5/amd-500-400-series/bios-is-updating-led-firmware/td-p/766394...

    Microsoft has created an AI-generated version of Quake

    Very interesting. Train it to draw over a reference barebones raster image being rendered in real time(think game engine without textures and simple geometry) with some basic lighting cues. train it on some high res textures and high quality lighting static images, and see what it can do. Also...
